At this moment, Mo Meilin did not forget to use all her skills to try to make Xie Yi feel sympathy.

But before her plan could unfold, she was interrupted by Xu Xiufang's irresistible action.

Xu Xiufang couldn't bear it any longer and kicked Mo Meilin on the chin. The latter's head tilted and she covered her chin. Even her screams were suppressed into groans, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

This was Xu Xiufang's rare severity and coldness. The chill emanating from her bones made everyone present feel a chill, including Xie Yi, Xu's mother, and Zhou's mother, all of whom were shocked.

Zhou's mother subconsciously hugged Zhou Lijuan's arm tightly, as if to relieve the inexplicable pain in her heart through this action.

In the distance, the short and fat man's shout pierced the night sky, "Wife!" It was the man who stayed in the courtyard and refused to leave, and he appeared hurriedly with a flashlight in his hand.

When the short and fat man saw Mo Meilin lying on the ground, he ran over anxiously and asked anxiously, "Wife? What's wrong with you?"

He was about to help Mo Meilin, but suddenly one foot was across Mo Meilin's head, accompanied by a calm and irrefutable voice: "Wait a minute!"

The short and fat man looked in the direction of the flashlight and a familiar yet unfamiliar face came into view. It was a new character, with an aura of authority that was about to unveil the next chapter.

Xu Xiufang gently blinked her bright eyes that seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, and her eyelashes fluttered gently like butterfly wings, as if silently conveying some message.

Seeing this, Xie Yi stepped forward swiftly, his movements as agile as the wind, and snatched the crucial flashlight from the short and fat man without hesitation.

The flashlight beam shook due to this sudden movement, shining on the surrounding walls, leaving behind a series of illusory light and shadows.

The short and fat man suddenly recognized that the uninvited guest was the mysterious person who bought the courtyard house. In an instant, his arrogant attitude seemed to be doused by a bucket of cold water. His eyes flickered and his threatening words became halting. "You, why are you here? How, how can you do this to me..."

However, before he could finish his words, his eyes met Xie Yi's eagle-like eyes, which were like a candle in the cold wind, extinguishing all thoughts of resistance!

At this time, on the other side of this small space, Xu Xiufang was secretly exerting her strength, while Mo Meilin made a slight and suppressed whimper, the sound was full of unwillingness and struggle.

The short and fat man seemed to be bound by some kind of spell. He was a man who usually treated even his own brothers coldly, but when he saw Mo Meilin's pitiful appearance, he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.

He summoned up the greatest courage of his life and stammered, "Hurry up, let go of my wife!"

After he finished speaking, there was a hint of disbelief in his voice.

"Wife?"

Xu Xiufang sneered, her tone full of sarcasm, "Your appetite is really unique. You won't let go of any kind of woman."

The short fat man looked bewildered, his eyes full of confusion: "What, what do you mean?"

"You dare to call a woman who abandoned her family and children in the countryside and seduced men in dishevel late at night your wife?"

Xu Xiufang's words were like sharp blades, hitting the point directly.

The short and fat man's face suddenly turned pale. Only then did he notice Mo Meilin's slightly messy outfit. He turned to look at Xie Yi, and all the mysteries seemed to have answers.

In fact, he and Mo Meilin had known each other for less than a month. It was an ordinary afternoon when she sat alone at the door of his house, claiming that she was penniless and only asked for the comfort of a glass of water.

He himself has an ordinary appearance, an average family background, and an old mother who is very demanding, so he is still single at the age of nearly 40.

When such a barely acceptable woman appeared in his world, his inner desire and loneliness became uncontrollable.

On a half-hearted night, he drifted along the river of desire.

It should have been just a brief night in his life, but somehow, he gradually sank into it and couldn't extricate himself.

After moving out of the courtyard house, she proposed to live in this shabby and small house to save money. He mistakenly thought that she was really willing to share the difficulties with him, so he happily accepted this sudden "love".

Who knew that this was just the beginning of another scam...

A short and fat man may appear weak on the outside, but deep down, he will never allow a woman who is supposed to be weaker than him to play with his feelings and applaud.

Sensing Xu Xiufang's hint, he suddenly kicked Mo Meilin in the waist with such force that Mo Meilin was in so much pain that she couldn't even make a sound to cry for help.

"Brother, sister-in-law," the short and fat man was very good at observing people's expressions. He looked at Xie Yi and Xu Xiufang in a flattering manner, then glared at Mo Meilin on the ground fiercely and said in a fierce tone: "I will definitely teach this restless woman a lesson!"

Although Mo Meilin is not a kind person, the behavior of this short and fat man is also chilling.

Xu Xiufang showed disgust on her face and waved her hand, signaling him to leave quickly.

The short and fat man quickly pulled Mo Meilin away.

Xu Xiufang turned around and her eyes met Xie Yi's.

She hummed softly, walked towards Xu's mother, and gently took her mother's arm: "Mom, let's go home?"

"Hey?"

Mother Xu was a little dazed for a moment. She looked at Xu Xiufang in confusion, then looked at her face which had regained its composure. She couldn't help but wonder, was the calm and resolute woman just now really her daughter?

Although she had her doubts in her heart, the trust between mother and daughter made Xu's mother nod without hesitation. When she was about to turn around and go home, her eyes inadvertently touched Xie Yi, and a warm smile suddenly broke out on her face.

"Xie Yi," Mother Xu called out earnestly, waving at him, "Let's go together, let's go home!"

"Okay, Mom."

Xie Yi responded with a smile, and glanced at his wife out of the corner of his eye, but found that she did not respond as usual, and her expression was unpredictable.

For a moment, Xie Yi couldn't tell whether Xu Xiufang was really angry.

"Sister-in-law, let's go home."

Xu Xiufang called Zhou Lijuan softly, trying to break the delicate silence.

"Okay, okay."

Zhou Lijuan swallowed and glanced at her mother secretly.

The mother's gaze lingered on Xu Xiufang and Xie Yi for a moment, then quickly dodged. It was obvious that both mother and daughter were shocked by the couple's efficient actions.

They followed the three men silently, without saying a word, and maintained silence tacitly.

When we got home, the five-member team that had just finished watching a movie had returned early.

Xu Xiaoyu was about to go out with an angry look on his face. When he saw them come in, he immediately widened his eyes, looked directly at Xie Yi, and called out the other person's full name in an unprecedented formal tone: "Xie Yi!"

Needless to say, it was obvious that Xu's father was worried that they would go to "catch the adulterer", so he notified Xu Xiaoyu as soon as he returned home and asked him to go to support.
